Wing ngrok support

This library can be used to create an ngrok tunnel for local development that forwards HTTP requests to a localhost endpoint.

When compiled to the cloud, this resource is a no-op.

Prerequisites

• winglang.
• An ngrok account.
• NGROK_AUTHTOKEN should include the auth token for your ngrok user.

Installation

npm i @winglibs/ngrok

Usage

Let's forward all requests that are sent to eladb.ngrok.dev to our cloud.Api.

bring ngrok;

let api = new cloud.Api();

api.get("/", inflight () => {
  return {
    status: 200,
    body: "hello ngrok!"
  };
});

let t = new ngrok.Tunnel(api.url, 
  domain: "eladb.ngrok.dev",

  // optional callback
  onConnect: inflight (url: str) => {
    log("connected to {url}");
  },
);

// you can add listeners
t.onConnect(inflight (url) => {
  log("url: {url}");
});

new cloud.Function(inflight () => {
  log("tunnel connected to {t.url}");
});

Once a tunnel is initialized, if an onConnect callback is set, it will be called with the external URL of the tunnel. You can use this hook, for example, to update a webhook URL with a dynamic ngrok endpoint.
